Name Band resume template: reversed name band, plain body
Name Band puts your name in a reversed band across the top of the page and keeps the body plain and compact below it. The flagship of the family is a nurse resume, and it suits service and clinical roles where certifications and shifts matter more than design.

Who the Name Band template is best for

- Candidates with licences and certifications that need room near the top
Less ideal for: Conservative applications where a coloured band would look out of place.
ATS notes for the Name Band layout
This is a single-column family, the layout that reads in the simplest order.
- Single column in every template of the family; the band is a header treatment, with a plain body beneath it.
- Text on a coloured band is the one thing to check first: confirm in the ATS view that your name still comes through as your name.
The only way to know what a parser reads from your own file is to look: export it, then run it through the ATS resume checker.
